SGL Carbon Reports Impact of Weak Market Dynamics in Q1 2025
SGL Carbon AG, a leader in carbon-based solutions, reports a 14% decline in sales for Q1 2025, with adjusted EBITDA dropping by 20.4% compared to the previous year. This downturn is attributed to reduced demand in key sectors, particularly semiconductors and automotive, impacting higher-margin products and overall sales.
The Graphite Solutions unit faced a significant 41.4% sales decrease due to decreased semiconductor demands. Meanwhile, the Process Technology unit showed resilience with a 10.6% increase, supported by strong international projects. There is a noticeable improvement in the Carbon Fibers unit's adjusted EBITDA due to strategic restructuring.
SGL Carbon confirms its 2025 forecast amidst challenging market conditions, expecting consolidated sales slightly below the previous year's €1,026.4 million, with adjusted EBITDA projected between €130 million and €150 million.
